Chapter 13

KJV - 2 Corinthians 13:10

Therefore I write these things being absent, lest being present I should use sharpness, according to the power which the Lord hath given me to edification, and not to destruction.

So, I write this when I'm not there, so that when I am with you, I won't have to be harsh. Instead, I'll use the strength the Lord has given me to build up, not tear down.
